Products in Processing Aids

Mosselman Castor Oil First Pression (8001-79-4) is the vegetable oil obtained from the seed of the castor tree “Ricinus communis” It contains a major amount of hydroxy acid.

A release agent that in most cases provides a heat-stable film that does not carbonize at temperatures that quickly destroy many organic mold release agents. Effective as a parting agent in die casting aluminum, zinc, magnesium and other metals

Thomas Swan PEG-3350 is a polyether compound which has a wide variety of applications depending on the length of the polymer chain and the molecular weight of the final polymer. PEG’s are typically prepared by polymerization of ethylene oxide and they can range in molecular weight from 200 g/mole to 8,000 g/mole.

Pepton® 44 is a peptizer which efficiently reduces the viscosity of natural rubber and general purpose synthetic elastomers during mastication at elevated temperatures.

Calumet Specialty Products Partners L.P. Mineral Jelly No. 10 is comprised of Petrolatum. It is commonly used

Mosselman Zinc Stearate (91051-01-3, 557-05-1) is a water-insoluble soap of commercial stearic acid.

Andisil® TL 10 products are high activity liquid catalysts used in the condensation cure of silicones, and the synthesis of polyurethanes & esters.

K - STOFF T is a unique MPA for filled compounds, which offers excellent bonding, to filler & polymer with the enhanced flow & improved mechanical properties.

A release agent that in most cases provides a heat-stable film that does not carbonize at temperatures that quickly destroy many organic mold release agents. Effective as a parting agent in die casting aluminum, zinc, magnesium and other metals

PolyGlide® 1226XF is a highly engineered HDPE/ceramic/nanoceramic composite for abrasion resistance and lubricity.Features and Benefits HDPE composite reinforced with hard, inert ceramic microspheres and nanoceramic platelets Improved Taber abrasion resistance when compared to PE/PTFE additives Provides slip and lubricity Ideal for can and container coatings; 21CFR 175.300 approved Effective replacement for PTFE additives Compare to (coarser) Polyfluo 900

Calumet Specialty Products Partners L.P. Mineral Jelly No. 15 is comprised of Petrolatum. It is commonly used

Thomas Swan PEG-4000 is a polyether compound which has a wide variety of applications depending on the length of the polymer chain and the molecular weight of the final polymer. PEG’s are typically prepared by polymerization of ethylene oxide and they can range in molecular weight from 200 g/mole to 8,000 g/mole.

Supermag 150 is an efficient activator that is highly active, and has high surface area MgO. It is produced under a special processing condition, thereby resulting in controlled particle size distribution. Supermag 150 is a high active magnesium oxide mainly used as an acid scavenger, scorch retarder, or curing agent during the cross-linking of several rubber compounds containing halogens or nitrile groups. Examples include chloroprene rubber and synthetics rubber (FKM, CIIR, BIIR, CPE).

MicroFLON T-Series powders are recycled PTFE micronized to various particle sizes. MicroFLON® T-Series is based on recycled PTFE powder that offers an attractive alternative to costly virgin PTFE. As confirmed in recent independent testing, MicroFLON® T offers a superior coefficient of friction and wear resistance in both nylon and polyoxymethylene when compared against virgin PTFE. Recycled PTFE also offers a significant reduction in carbon footprint relative to the use of prime PTFE.

EverGlide® MB150 is a Polypropylene Homopolymer (PPH) which makes your parts last longer, decrease heat generation, and improve lubricity. Plastics are being used to replace metal in applications where metal parts have been used for decades. We know that plastic offers many advantages to metal, however most plastics, without additives, lack the properties required for demanding applications.

EurikaWaxLP 200 is a hard, low viscosity, medium melt point polyethylene wax ideal for use in coatings, adhesives and plastics, where high lubricity, reasonable wear resistance and strong viscosity modification are required.

IRRH Speciality Chemicals Zinc Stearate ISC-500 is biodegradable and non-toxic.

EF 44A - A blend of fatty acid derivatives (predominantly zinc soaps) useful as a processing additive for a wide variety of rubbers with the exception of halogenated elastomers. It is particularlyeffective in highly reinforced black and silica compounds and is especially suited for high durometer extrusion.

Pertac/GR is a multifunctional process aid based on 1.2-polybutadiene converted into free-flowing granules.
